SCREEN PRINT OR EMBROIDER?

With a high value product like polo's, many companies opt to embroider. Embroidery is a process where stitches are done directly into the fabric, and it has a high perceived value. Screen-printing is an alternate decorating options, and screen printing looks clean and professional on a custom polo as well.

When deciding which decoration option to go with, think of the context of the run. Embroidery is most suitable on polo's, jackets and hats (even T-shirts sometimes). Screenprinting is suitable for all shirt options, but is somewhat less ideal on hats.

Suiting the decoration type to the order is a good idea when possible, to take advantage of volume pricing.

TYPES OF POLOS:

Polo's have a wide price range. There are economy options as with most products, but polo's can also be name-brand, like Lacoste, Nike & others, for orders where quality is the top focus. There are Men's, Ladies and youth fit's in a variety of product styles, and there are various fabric options.

A 50-50 blend is most suitable for a light-weight economy polo for sport or leisure, where the top end polo's are generally pique cotton. There are a variety of button, trim and color options all the way from discount to premium in the different polo styles.

THE BOTTOM LINE:

Polo's are a premium product best worn by staff, partners or others who face customers. They represent your organization in the best way possible - with a quality, professional image, and can be screenprinted or embroidered to your visual preference.
